Hello everyone!

Finally I got my hands on the dreadnaught expansion.  Unfortunately, without even having it played once some questions arose that I'd like to post here...
How do other players handle this:

If the tarantula's gunner gets killed, other space marines can take over. Simple.
Question 1: if a space marine carrying a (super)heavy weapon does so, and later leaves the tarantula again:
Does he get his original weapon back or only the bolter...?

Question 2: could the commander also take over the tarantula?

Question 3: can space marines from a different chapter (colour) take over a tarantula?

Question 4: is says the alien player cannot use the tarantula. Does everyone play it like that? What about if chaos marines could do so...?
